How can I get pregnant by having sex during my period?

It is a well-known fact that you cannot have sex during menstruation, but in real life, couples often go against this principle and choose to have sex during menstruation. Having sex at this time can cause many harms, such as it is easy to cause infection and is more likely to suffer from gynecological diseases. Generally, you will not get pregnant by having sex during menstruation because women will not ovulate at this time. However, it is possible to have sex during menstruation and then get pregnant. This situation rarely happens. If you encounter this situation, you should consider the following factors.

How can I get pregnant by having sex during my period?

It is true that pregnancy during menstruation is rare, but it is possible and there are precedents of pregnancy during menstruation. First of all, we need to understand what women's menstrual period is. Women have their period every month because they ovulate an egg every month. The sperm and egg combine to develop into an embryo, and after ten months of gestation, a baby is born. After a couple has sex, under normal circumstances, the sperm and egg combine to form a fertilized egg, thus starting the pregnancy process. However, if the sperm and egg cannot combine, the egg cannot survive in the uterus for a long time (about three days) and will be discharged from the body with the shedding of the endometrium. This is what people often call menstruation.

In order to find out whether a woman can get pregnant during menstruation, you need to first find out her ovulation period. A woman's ovulation period is generally between two menstrual cycles. We can roughly infer that, from the first day of menstruation this month, push back 14-15 days, which is basically her ovulation period. If you have sexual intercourse within ten days before or after ovulation, you may get pregnant. If you have sex on other days, the possibility of pregnancy is extremely small, which is what people often call the safe period.

Not all women ovulate at the same time. Of course, most women ovulate around the 14th day after their period starts. But if ovulation occurs early, like in the case of netizen Ms. Zhang, and her husband has strong sperm, pregnancy is very likely to occur. The average number of sperms a man ejaculates at one time is about 300 million. These sperms can survive in a woman's body for about 7 days. If the woman ovulates early, pregnancy is very likely. Therefore, even during menstruation, necessary contraceptive measures should be taken.
